Somebody please make a biopic about Colonel Sanders!
His story needs to be told.
sharei agree
shareOne hundred percent agreed, I watched a documentary on him and his story is fascinating.
shareYes, it would definitely make for an interesting biopic. In addition to being a larger than life character, it also appears that the colonel didn’t suffer fools lightly :D
"He then found work as a fireman on the Illinois Central Railroad, and he and his family moved to Jackson, Tennessee. Sanders lost his job at Illinois after brawling with a colleague."
"After a while, Sanders began to practice law in Little Rock, which he did for three years, earning enough in fees for his family to move with him.[6] His legal career ended after a courtroom brawl with his own client."
"In 1916, the family moved to Jeffersonville, where Sanders got a job selling life insurance for the Prudential Life Insurance Company.[6] Sanders was eventually fired for insubordination."
"In 1930, the Shell Oil Company offered Sanders a service station in North Corbin, Kentucky, rent free, in return for paying the company a percentage of sales. It was during this period that Sanders was involved in a shootout with Matt Stewart, a local competitor, over the repainting of a sign directing traffic to his station. Stewart killed a Shell employee who was with Sanders and was convicted of murder, eliminating Sanders's competition."
